PURPOSE To evaluate the adhesion to CAD/CAM feldspathic blocks by failure analysis and shear bond strength test (SBSt) of different restorative systems and different surface treatments, for purpose of moderate chipping repair. MATERIALS AND METHODS A self-adhering flowable composite (Vertise Flow, Kerr) containing bi-functional phosphate monomers and a conventional flowable resin composite (P...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to analyze the shear bond strength of a new composite resin to polymer-based composite substrates using various surface roughnesses and two kinds of polymer matrices. MATERIALS AND METHODS Particulate filler composite resin with cross-linked polymer matrix and fiber-reinforced composite with semi-interpenetrating polymer matrix were used as bonding subs...

The use of resin-based composite materials in operative dentistry is increasing, including applications in stress-bearing areas. However, composite restorations, in common with all restorations, suffer from deterioration and degradation in clinical service. Durable repair alternatives by layering a new composite onto such failed composite restorations, will eliminate unnecessary loss of tooth t...

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate how ultraviolet light (UV) irradiation using an ordinary UV sterilizer would affect the bonding of experimental composite resins to an autopolymerizing acrylic resin. To this end, three composite resins and one unfilled resin--of which the compositions were similar to commercial composite resin artificial teeth--were prepared as repair composites...

We report on the preparation and stereolithographic 3D printing of a resin based composite between poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) host matrix poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) filler, related cumulative volatile organic compounds’ (VOCs) adsorbent properties. The control all steps for through morphological (SEM), structural (Raman spectroscopy) functi...

The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical performance of a resin-modified, self-cured glass ionomer adhesive for bonding cast splint Herbst appliances to that of a conventional composite resin in a split-mouth design. Ten patients (six females and four males) with cast splint Herbst appliances were followed for a mean period of 791 months. The performance of 40 cobalt-chromium cast ...

ethanol wet-bonding (ewb) technique has been stated to decrease degradation of resin-dentin bond. this study evaluated the effect of two ewb techniques on composite resin-to-enamel bond strength.silicon carbide papers were used to produce flat enamel surfaces on the buccal faces of forty-five molars. optibond fl (ofl) adhesive was applied on enamel surfaces in three groups of 15 namely: enamel ...

Poly(L-lactic acid)-co-bisphenol-A epoxy resin/vermiculite nanocomposites (PLLA–co-bis A ER/VMT) were prepared by in situ melt polycondensation of L-LA in the presence of amino-modified vermiculite. The fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra was used to investigate molecular interactions between the modified vermiculite and PLLA. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) testing indicated that ...

Polyethersulfone (PES) based nanocomposite nanofiltration membrane was prepared by immersion precipitation method and casting solution technique using  poly (acrylic acid) grafted-iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4) as hydrophilic filler additives. For this purpose, iron oxide nanoparticles were modified by in situ polymerization of acrylic acid in aqueous solution by potassium persulfate as initi...
